I can find absolutely no information on this group other than their YouTube page, but I like what they're doing here. The chamber instruments, plus mandolin and drums, is a cool, although not entirely original, concept. I never much cared for this song until this group put their spin on it. They've got several other videos worth checking out, too. Update: The band has, since this original post, developed a website.
The original song was released by Foster the People. Front man Mark Foster wrote the song while working as a jingle writer; however, since the lyrics describe a young man contemplating homicide, I doubt it would've sold very many shoe as a TV jingle. Then again, everything is possible.
